Happy Birthday to you...


Easter Sunday just happens to fall on Brads birthday this year so I wanted to post something today since I know I will not be able to do this on his actual birthday. I saw this on Nikki's page (thanks Nikki for the idea) She turned 26 and in honor of those 26 years of life she wrote that number of things that she was thankful for. So, Brad is also turning 26, and I wanted to write 26 things that I'm thankful for and that I love about him!


Brad-I feel like things have been so crazy in our home/lives lately and I just wanted to forget all of that for a moment and remember the things that make you YOU and that make me love you!



  1. Smile-we'll start with the obvious, you have a beautiful smile and I love it!

  2. I love your eyes

  3. Sense of humor-I am sooo grateful for this...laughter IS the best medicine!

  4. I love that you are "my babies' daddy!"

  5. I love that I can look at our kids and see you!

  6. I love watching you play and talk with our babies.

  7. I'm thankful for you introducing the gospel into my life!

  8. I am thankful for your sensitivity

  9. I love to wear your t-shirts to bed

  10. I love that we share the same views on how we want to "raise" our kids

  11. You accept me with allllllll of my flaws ;)

  12. You watch any movie with me...chick flick, musical, drama...and you enjoy it too!

  13. I love that you sneak things into the grocery cart! not to be discovered until we're home and I'm unpacking!

  14. We seem to like and dislike the same foods (other than steak...yuuuk!)

  15. You ARE the kindest person I know!

  16. I love that you are a "perfect gentlemen" - open doors, hold my hand, send me flowers...

  17. I love that you are considerate of my feelings, and of others and their feelings as well.

  18. I am grateful for all your hard work...the time, effort, and hours you put in so that we can be comfortable

  19. I love your hugs at night when we let the dogs out...sooo snuggly and warm!

  20. I hate that I LOVE how no matter how hard we try to go to bed "on time" we never can...because those are the moments we can't get enough of each other and what we have to say...

  21. I am grateful for your ability to listen to all my questions and thoughts...and your advice and perspectives

  22. I love that you get along with my family...we are not perfect, and you do not judge us, you genuinely love us!

  23. I love that you get along with your family...they are not perfect either and again, you love them all!

  24. I love the click that you make with your mouth

  25. I love that we know every little thing about each other...our annoying yet cute habits...

  26. I love "the smile" you know the one...

Happy Birthday Bradley!!!
